That Porsche passing the AMG was amazing. I can’t believe they didn’t both eat it.

GM just hired him to design their next Tahoe/Suburban.

Maybe he was being scientific and cut a different number of straps - or cut to a different depth on each one.

If he believed the animal to be rabid (it’s behavior could certainly indicate that), then there is a risk to the public if that animal escapes into the woods.

I’m not knowledgeable on groundhog behavior, but most non-pet animals try to keep a distance from humans. This one did not, and could have been rabid.

They probably wouldn’t be allowed to make that big a spectacle at a racing event where they are a non-participant.

For much of the working population, simply providing food, clothing and shelter for themselves is beyond their means.

In areas with winter and road salt, you wouldn’t find many cars from 2000 in good condition.

Of course they focus on the payment. Savings are non-existant. It’s not like buyers today are considering either paying in full from savings or financing. It’s always going to be financed / leased. Monthly payment is (in their minds) the only thing they need to negotiate.

Probably not a huge problem for new car dealers / manufacturers. On an eight year loan some of these repo cars will be relatively old and with high mileage. Not the kind of vehicle you’d cross-shop with new.

What can they afford? Average new car is over $30k now, with wages stagnant since Reagan.

Darwin would be pissed.

I thought Chevy invented them as a way to keep a sleeping elderly person from falling over.

I have one of these stupid things in my Forester. So now I have three mirrors, a rear window and a little TV screen all giving me the same information.

I’m betting that the people who were too lazy to check their mirrors without the camera and would hit things in reverse are still going to be too lazy to check the…

Don’t worry about it. There are plenty of GT86's out there. It’s packs a longer wheelbase on a shorter overall vehicle length and has a vastly stiffer chassis.

There are easier ways to get trucks for components, but this crew doesn’t sound like a bunch of masterminds.

Why not just run a feeder series in the southern hemisphere so there is no ‘off’ season. F1 sponsors a team and buys two seats. The first and second finishers get the seats - every year.

I haven’t looked into the details, but does this deal make sense if you have multiple cars in your household? You’d still need to have other insurance policies covering the other vehicles / drivers. What if you carry insurance with coverage higher (or much higher) than your state’s compulsory minimums? In that case…

Would it make more sense to put the Prius body on a chassis suitable to the Cummins?
